The Southern Swamplands are a vast, sprawling area of bog, heathlands, swamps and marshes. They are nothing like as sinister or unpleasant as the Black Marsh to the north, but rather are where the waters of the Dragon Flood empty out. It is believed that perhaps the far eastern end of the swamp there may be a large lake but that would be in the Easterner's realm so no one is sure.

The Southern Swamplands play a vital role in defending the realm of Albion from the east. Between the Black Marsh, the forest of Eldaran, the Barren Scrub and these swamps the whole of the eastern edge of Albion is pretty much impassable apart from the small corridor guarded by the town of Eastward.
